Research reports

Fakultetsnämnden (the Faculty Board) at Blekinge Institute of Technology has decided (03-08-20) that all the Institute's research reports must be examined and approved by a professor or a senior lecturer (docent) - that is not a co-author - in the subject area. A research report must be approved before it is published. The author of a research report should send the manuscript to the reviewer before contacting the library and submitting the report to the research database.

Write notes in the Remarks field:

- how many printed copies of the report you want (we always order three extra copies for the library).

- whom the invoice and the copies of the report should be sent to.

- the name of the reviewer.

If your report contains colour pictures, let the administrators know whether you want to print these pages in colour or black/white.

Make sure the page numbers are placed correctly, the report will be printed on both sides of the leaf.

When submitting something to the database, a note is automatically sent to the administrators by e-mail.

The administrator gives a serial number to the report and sends an order to the printers.

The library always adds 3 copies to the order (for library shelves and archive). These 3 copies are included in the bill sent to the department.

The library registers the report in the national catalogue of Swedish university libraries, LIBRIS, with a web link to the research database.
